Originally posted in March 2016. Rewriting and #reposting There are not many things that bring more joy into my life than giving to someone else. How can I serve the people around me who I care about and love dearly? How can I serve those in my community? How can I serve this stranger who […]
As I sat in prayer and reflection last Sunday morning, I was reminded of how impeccably unique each one of us is. How we are each so wonderfully made, with our strengths and weaknesses that allow us to thrive in our own ways, and connect with other people and personalities. We are fully made to […]
I have to be inspired to blog. Inspired by a thought or moment that moves me so deeply, I am pushed to put it into words. This blog was inspired by a dear friend of mine. From a phone conversation, we had last week. A phone conversation that centered around our kids and this pandemic […]
